XS724EM to XS724EMv2 Migration
The original XS724EM allowed us to automate switch configuration by issuing HTTP requests directly to the web interface. Since XS724EMv2 introduces a new web UI, are the underlying HTTP endpoints documented and supported for automation? If not, does XS724EMv2 provide a supported management interface such as SSH, SNMP, or a REST API, and is there a migration guide for customers moving automation from XS724EM to XS724EMv2?
